In the olden days, when dinosaurs ruled the earth, and before cell phone juggling yuppies discovered Harley-Davidson. We could always count on one guy to follow us on a run, in a chase truck.  Inevitably, with ever increasing amounts of booze being consumed, someone would find themselves exploring a cornfield at high speed. This would lead to the need for the previously mentioned truck, to haul what was left of the bike back home.

 At one point in AH (might have been a different sim, its getting a little fuzzy) you could land near a downed pilot, in a two seater, and pick him up. Now, if it was set up so that when you got a guy back and landed. He got his perk points, or kill messages, whatever. You could be a hero. I think a lot of squads could get a volunteer to drive the "chase truck" if this was implemented. Might add a facet to the game.

A Fiesler Storch would be perfect for this! Its even got a rear MG to kill Nikis with! I'd fly SAR sorties alot if we had the ability. Dont think it would be to hard to add.

During the BoB Poles were landing his Hurries on the enemy lands just to took a downed friend back home...


It think that a lot of folks here would fly a bird like that to feel the pleasure of helping! It's briliand idea :D

We don't need a new plane for such an idea. There are some two-seaters already in the Planeset what could be used in such a manner.
The SBD, the Val, Me110, or even the GV's could be used for the same purpose.

Hey, what do dogs and Harleys have in common? They both like to mark there spots where ever they go!

You know the really great thing about owning a Harley? If ever you need parts for the engine you can just go down to your local Briggs-n-Stratton dealer!

it would certainly add value to virtual life in AH. and would probably change some people's tactics when fighting..tho, like Central said, there would be those who got off hunting downed players to saw in half with their cannons.
